                        The Horrific Situation for Female Directors: Gender in Filmmaking

                        • March 19, 2024
                        • 12:00 PM- 1:00 PM
                        • In 2008, after making history as the first woman to win Best Director for "The Hurt Locker," Kathryn Bigelow expressed her frustration to a reporter on the lack of opportunities for female filmmakers saying, "Hollywood is supposedly a community of forward-thinking and progressive people, yet this horrific situation for women directors persists. Gender discrimination stigmatizes our entire industry. Change is essential. Gender-neutral hiring is essential.” Despite her call for change little progress has been made since then. Female filmmakers continue to face fewer opportunities and harsher scrutiny compared to their male counterparts. In this civic action hour, we will delve into the history of female filmmakers and explore ongoing efforts to enhance women's presence behind the camera.

The lecture critically examines how Latinx individuals navigate issues of representation, agency, and societal influence, as well as how the intersectionality of race, ethnicity, gender, and class plays a significant role in shaping their experiences. Through a comprehensive analysis of academic research, historical data, and contemporary case studies, this lecture sheds light on the complexities and challenges faced by Latinx communities while emphasizing the community’s collective power and contributions to broader social, cultural, and political landscapes.

                          Equity for All Arizonans

                          Dr. Brian Dille

                          Equity is related to, but distinct from, equality. Equality is the practice of giving everyone identical resources and opportunities, regardless of where they start. Equity, by contrast, acknowledges that everyone’s starting position is different

                          • Description: Barbie, the 2023 film directed by Greta Gerwig, was released to both skepticism and fanfare. It has grossed more than $1.44 billion, is the 14th highest-grossing film of all time, and has been nominated for 8 Oscars. But what is this film trying to tell us? Who is it speaking to? Is it a meaningful film that tries to subvert the way Barbie and women are perceived or is it a pretty pink example of commercialism and sexism? Come to the Honors office, watch the film, and stay for the discussion. Light snacks will be provided.
